not unlike sun-spangled snow
your beauty brilliantly blinds
binds me to something bright
that i can never have, i am left to
living as your shadow instead
A rune poem, based on an Elder Futhark rune selected at random.
Today’s rune is isaz, a rune that is translated as the word “ice”. Sources associate isaz with a calmness, present moment or stillness. As ice, isaz is sometimes associated with standstill, stagnation, stasis or contraction; even at times as pristine beauty with seductive qualities.
Please visit my Elder Futhark pages at sceadugenga.com for additional interpretations of the runes based on multiple references and personal reflection.

Hey, you take melancholia to a new level. 😁🫢
I’ve had over 40 years of practice. I am effectively a chronic melancholic. 😁
They just use different words for it in a clinical setting.
Muy gracioso. 😉🤣
